Join us on the 11th of May 2025, for a fun family day for Dachshunds, their owners and all family dogs too.

Thirlestane Castle is proud to host this event which is organised by the Scottish Dachshund Rehoming and Welfare Charity. The day will be supporting the IVDD.

Meet Like-Minded People: Connect with fellow dachshund enthusiasts, share stories, and bond over your shared love for these amazing dogs.

Fun Activities for All: From dachshund races to agility challenges, there’s something for every dachshund to enjoy. Watch your pup race, leap, and explore all the fun!

Doggy Socialising: Let your dachshund make new furry friends, and maybe you’ll meet some new human pals to swap dog-walking tips with!

Dog-Friendly Stalls & Treats: Pamper your pup with delicious doggy treats, and check out a range of dog accessories, toys, and more at the market stalls.

A Great Day for the Whole Family: The event is perfect for people of all ages to come together, enjoy the fun, and celebrate everything that makes dachshunds so special!

Tickets and further details will be available soon.

On the day all dog owners are responsible for their own actions and the safety and actions of their dogs. All dogs must be on a lead, please bring dog waste bags.
